OK - so I feel stupid now - sorry for all the repeated comments.

I apparently needed a new kernel to get this to work, not the blacklist
I mentioned above. Bug #518387 talks about a new kernel being worked on
that clears up some KMS issues (I think). I added the kernel from the
PPA mentioned at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/518387/comments/2
and now I have working Nouveau on all the different bootable drives I
have running Ubuntu 10.04.

Also, for anybody who is moving from the original nvidia proprietary
drivers, I had to backup my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, then do a sudo Xorg
-configure before moving the ~/xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11

It seems to work, even though X seems to consume a lot of CPU now when
anything on screen moves.
